Leonard Bernstein in Hiroshima on with EC Youth Orchestra on August 6, 1985
Starting at Athene on August 1st, 6th in Hiroshima, Budapest (Hungary), and finally in Vienna (Catholic Authority Stephan's Dom)
(Originally broadcast on August 10, 1985)
Everyone in the world, especially those in developed country should watch this once in lifetime. That's the very reason I'm uploading this.

Reference :
"Leonard Bernstein" by Joan Peyser, Music Critic at New York Times

Trivia:
If memory serves, this programme was broadcast originally on the eve of August 10, on which day there was firework event in Kashiwara on the bank close to my house. My sister went to enjoy fireworks with her friends and she had another program which she was eager to watch on 2ch (宮本武蔵 featuring 役所広司, 奥田瑛二, 小林麻美), I was ordered by my mother that I was obliged to choose whether or not going to fireworks or to watch this original broadcast of Bernstein starting 20:00 when 宮本武蔵 was also broadcast (which was recorded for my sister by my mother's order.) Thank God that ordered NHK to repeat this program.

Note:
If they wasn't working with phone tapping at my house, how can a city library obtain information on me that tells my taste at the tender age of 14. (小林麻美著『あの頃、ショパン』1984) 小林麻美、岡田奈々 and Nasstasja Kinski were my idols. How can they learn that 善教寺 owns a copy of Japanese translation of "The Devided Self" and I would bring the same copy? Were they, the LDP ruled Japanese government serving for their citizens? How do you explain Bush-Cheney government in the US that swept Al Gore in Monica Lewinsky scandal?
